Cables To Go 00680 Cat6a shielded network ethernet cable 9 ft blue

SKU CH-B91Z-MDDHS MPN 00680

Shielded Cat6a patch cable with snagless RJ-45 connectors for 10 Gigabit Ethernet, tested to ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 component requirements

  • Cable categoryCategory 6a
  • First connector1 x RJ-45 Male Network
  • Second connector1 x RJ-45 Male Network
  • Product typeCategory 6a
  • Overall length9 ft (2.74 m)
  • Product colorBlue
  • Cat6a rating supports 10 Gigabit network speeds
  • Shielded construction blocks noise and electromagnetic interference
  • Snagless boots protect connectors during installation
  • 9 ft length suits typical patch panel runs
  • Blue jacket enables easy colour coding

Application Fit

This Cat6a shielded patch cable connects 10GBase-T network adapters, switches, routers, modems and patch panels. It is built for installations that require verified 10 Gigabit bandwidth and protection from electromagnetic interference. It is not for runs that exceed the supplied 9 ft length or for environments needing outdoor-rated jackets.

Decisive Spec

The cable meets ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Cat6a component requirements with individually bonded pairs that maintain twist spacing to the termination point. Snagless RJ-45 connectors on both ends prevent tab damage during repeated insertion and removal.

Sustained Behaviour

Shielded construction and bonded pair geometry minimise Near-End Crosstalk and structural return loss over continuous high-throughput loads. The design maintains signal integrity for voice, data and video distribution without the degradation seen in unshielded alternatives during prolonged 10 Gigabit transmission.

Questions about this item

What does Cat6a mean for real-world 10GBase-T speeds?

Cat6a supports 10GBase-T over the full 9 ft length, so a 10 Gigabit link runs at line rate without the distance limits that affect plain Cat6.

How does the ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 rating limit what this cable can carry?

The ANSI/TIA 568 C.2 Cat6a component test guarantees the cable meets the electrical margins needed for 10GBase-T, including NEXT and return-loss limits.

Will the snagless boots and RJ-45 plugs fit a standard keystone jack or switch port?

Yes, the 1 x RJ-45 Male connectors on each end are standard size and the snagless boots clear typical port spacing on switches, routers and patch panels.
